Hello!

I was just wondering if anyone has watched this series and what they thought. I have been rolling the idea back and forth for awhile now and was just curious about what other people thought about the series.

Thanks

Its a great series it ran 300 episodes in Japan not including the six movies and six oavs. Some may say the series is a little outdated, but to me its still hilarious. The second movie Beautiful Dreamer is one of my favorite anime movies of all time. Its early Rumiko Takahashi stuff, but some of the ideas were so ahead of her time. Animeigo has been releasing them for sometime now, I don't think they are done with the whole series yet.

They're not done yet. Also, I believe it's 200 episodes, not 300. And I have some of it up for trade if anyones interested in checking out my list.

Actually, the original TV series has 195 episodes, 212 if you count the 6 movies and 11 OAVs (these OVAs were released in the US over 6 tapes).

I have yet to watch all the Anime episodes (last seen 125 me thinks^^). However, I've read the entire manga sometime ago so I know the full story... i've seen the movies, OVA's, and even own the complete music box (15 cd's of UY raw music goodness. Expensive as hell but well worth it.) A true classic that even influenced Kajishima's Tenchi series. Probably up there as one of my all time favorite comedy manga.

You knew what I meant. I was going off the top of my head. I knew I was in the right vicinity though.
